Bleeding Brakes.....

Ive been doing the gravity feed way of bleeding my brakes. I remember seeing getting clear tube, putting fuild into a glass bottle. Then you put the tube on the bleeder and tube into fuild and bleed til no bubbles but, i keep getting bubbles even after about an hour or so at this. I did replace all my lines with SS brake lines, is this normal or should i just keep bleeding? Just looking for a shout out...

maybe your too senstive w/ the bubble thing. BUBBLES meaning actual ones that take a space in the clear tubing. not small micro bubbles in the fluid itself.

just bleed, and u should be okay. do gently..

Make sure the tubing is attached firmly to the bleeder. Air can leak in there and show bubbles in the fluid, or worse, the air can leak back into the caliper.
